Some interesting news...

Just read an interview on CloverLeaf Digital, an iTV company from the US. Here's the interview:

Here's something interesting. I wonder who the "competitive provider" they're launching with in the UK is:

"Brickman: We have two exciting launches coming up--unfortunately, I can't name the network operators yet. One is with a competitive provider in the UK, and is our first international deployment. In addition to local UK weather, we are providing a local cinema guide with video trailers, an events guide featuring London theater and music events, and a local version of our classified ads service. We are also partnering with the UK news provider, ITN, to provide UK entertainment news, including videoclips."

Seems to be quite London-centric, so I'd guess HomeChoice.

Although having said that, the interview does mention ICTV's HeadendWare technology quite a lot, which has already been confirmed as being trialled by ntl (see ICTV press release here: http://www.ictv.com/whats_new/2005/p...sept26ntl.html)
